When a booking a vacation, besides the deposit, do you have to pay everything upfront, or are the payments spread out? Thanks for your help!”

Hi, Ashlee! If you are booking a vacation package (room/tickets/etc) you need to hold your reservation with a $200 deposit. The balance will need to be paid 45 days prior to your arrival date.

For a room only reservation, a one night's deposit is needed, and you pay the balance upon arrival.

Once you have your vacation booked, you can make payments before your final payments are due if this helps you to budget for your trip. If you need more details, call (407)W-DISNEY and a cast member can give you payment options. Hope this helps!
